We'll enable Flow there soon -- I'm glad you're interested!

Polish is done, and @DannyH enabled Flow on 3 of the 4 requested pages there, but https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyskusja_Wikipedii:Flow couldn't be converted because of T67802#1497491. Commons was done briefly but then reverted because it started spewing errors, which I think may have to do with T101300: F5. SUL the flow talk page manager.

Errors on Commons looked like:

2015-07-30 23:41:11 mw1209 commonswiki exception ERROR: [42c8eeb8] /wiki/Special:Upload
Flow\Exception\FlowException from line 291 of /srv/mediawiki/php-1.26wmf16/extensions/Flow/includes/TalkpageManager.php:
All of the candidate usernames exist, but they are not configured as expected.

OK, thanks, Polish is still waiting for a separate feedback page, then. For now, users are mixing sandbox with Newbie's Questions (they feel like newbies while testing Flow ;) and leave their feedback on sandbox. (T88140 is what we need).

Errors on Commons looked like:

rEFLW5c84c341117e: Clean up 'Flow talk page manager' related code would fix that, except it's not deployed yet. So I manually added the 'Flow talk page manager' account to the 'bot' group and it should work now.

We removed the problem that was breaking the deployment on the main Project talk:Flow page (Dyskusja_Wikipedii:Flow).

I moved the existing Flow/Tests page (Dyskusja_Wikipedii:Flow/Brudnopis) to become the main Project talk:Flow, and then created a new tests page:

https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyskusja_Wikipedii:Flow
https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyskusja_Wikipedii:Flow/Brudnopis

The bug that caused the problem still needs to get fixed -- see T107204: Separate reference tables by wiki

We removed the problem that was breaking the deployment on the main Project talk:Flow page (Dyskusja_Wikipedii:Flow).

Does anyone (@Catrope maybe) know how this was worked around?

@Mattflaschen

The problem was triggered by Wikidata's Project_talk:Flow's side rail, which contained links to Wikidata-specific namespaces. The workaround here was to edit that page's side rail, and take out those links. (They were only there for testing anyway, not essential.) Then it took about four days to clear, I guess because of cacheing.
